Why This Recipe Works
This onion raita is a simple, stir-together recipe adapted by us from Kaumudi Marathé's The Essential Marathi Cookbook (2009). It works wonderfully when paired with Marathé's Kombdi, Jira Ghalun (Cumin-Scented Chicken), where the cooling, creamy yogurt balances the rich, spicy sauce and the earthy smokiness of the cumin.
